Nothing at all intelligent to say today, so i'll leave you with song lyrics to guess:

I went looking for trouble,
And boy I found her,

It's all Hallows Eve,
The Moon is full,
Will she trick or treat I bet she will

There I was writing my article for tomorrow on the demise of the middle classes and the defered gratification, juxtaposed with the rise of Thatcherism in the government when I checked my mail and read this:

Chimp article

I so wish I could write something like this. I need to think about my career choice maybe.

Finally, finally, finally...they came and did the job they had been asked to do. 5 days now and I can now officially go out again. They turned up yesterday without all the necessary tools and so went away again.

Geez, what a week that was. With Bush in the country for three days (officially) then my editor decided that they were needing an article everyday if I could manage that. 5.30am starts all this week.Sheesh...Ended up the week wishing the Texan would just go, whilst thinking him a slightly better orator than before. Arguments still flawed to hell and the web of lies got...
